  • Title: Interprofessional communicability and reliability of the Comprehensive Psychopathological Rating Scale (CPRS) as assessed by video-taped interviews.
    Author: Perris C, Ericsson U, Jacobsson L, Lindström H, Perris H.
    Journal: Acta Psychiatr Scand; 1979 Aug; 60(2):144-8. PubMed ID: 506782.
    Abstract:
    Five raters: two experienced psychiatrists, two psychologists (one acquainted with the use of the scale and one new to it) and an untrained social worker, participated in training sessions in the use of the CPRS. Videotaped interviews were used for assessing the level of inter-rater reliability and the communicability of the CPRS to unexperienced raters. As in previous studies, it was found that the CPRS is easily communicable and that a very satisfactory level of agreement among raters can be achieved.
